| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Indiana state officials have warned residents to turn off their lights due to unhealthy ozone levels. The Indiana Department of Environmental Management declared an Air Quality Action Day in effect through Friday for northwest, northcentral and southeast portions of the state. Air Quality Action Days (AQAD) are days when ground-level ozone and fine particulate matter, known as PM2.5, can build up to unhealthy levels in the outdoor air, according to the department. The National Weather Service said the AQAD was issued because ozone levels are expected to be in the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups range. 'Conserve energy by turning off lights or setting the air conditioner to 75 degrees or above,' said the weather service. |
